FWIW, I was "lucky" and able to "give up".  Lucky in the sense that I'd exported my PGP Kwallet4 to xml prior to an upgrade.  So, after mucking around for a while I deleted the wallets I ended up with after my failures as well as their rc files.  I then allowed Chrome to request/create a new wallet but used blowfish and then imported the xml.  As for the plasma 5 wallet, I just allowed Networkmanager to prompt and create a new one as well.  But since I had to redo all my VPN configurations I didn't do any import.

So, all is working fine for me with blowfish 4 & 5 wallets
